Continuity mistake: In this scene we see a flight of Navy Corsair fighters leaving the deck of an aircraft carrier on a training run. While in the air a close up shot of the flight leader's cockpit reveals that the aircraft in the background have changed into Grumman Wildcat fighters. When they make their attack run it's back to Corsair fighters with no sign of the Wildcat fighters.

Factual error: When Sterling Hayden reminisces about his first tour, he is watching F4U Corsairs landing aboard in 1944. However, the planes are marked in the post-war red bar insignia.
